The Alternative Story of Leith: A Tour of the Shore

Join Paul Stewart, a tour guide with Invisible Cities on a segment of his tour in Leith. In this video, Paul takes us to the Shore area of Leith and tells some alternative anecdotes of this iconic area of Leith including shedding some light into the origins of the use of the popular phrase, “Sunshine on Leith.”

Paul runs two tours in Leith for Invisible Cities which is a social enterprise that trains people who have experienced homelessness to become walking tour guides of their own city. They offer alternative tours to locals and tourists. To book a tour with Paul or view the other tours this organisation offers in cities across the UK, visit their website below.
